Old United States Post Office - Elizabethton, Tennessee

The Old U.S. Post Office in Elizabethton, Tennessee was nominated for listing on the National Register of Historic Places under criterion C for architecture in this small community. It was quite an achievement for a town this small to secure a building of this
size & style and the architecture was very unique for the area. This late Beaux Arts building was constructed in 1932 and has an ashlar, raised basement, a front facade with eight Ionic columns in antis, and a hip roof with balustrated parapet. This buildings was designed in 1931, constructed in 1932, and occupied by the Post Office in 1933. This was done under the supervision of the Treasury Department and C. A. Morrison & Son was General Contractor. The value is enchanced by the fact that the exterior of building today exists same as it did when newly constructed. A 'modernization' was accomplished under the auspices of the General Services Administration in 1965. However, the changes made to interior were minor and in no way effect the character of the building. It was added to the NRHP on August 9, 1983. The information above and more can be found on the original documents submitted for listing consideration located here:

Three bracketed photos were taken with a handheld Nikon D7200 and combined with Photomatix Pro to create this HDR image. Additional adjustments were made in Photoshop CS6.
